Default Would I benefit from a fast 90/90 combo?

I have sort of a mild heads and cam combo with a ported LS6 intake an Shaner S3 TB, and I see some of these guys on here getting really good gains with the Fast 90/90 combo but alot of them have some pretty healthy H/C setups-I have a measley LPE GT2-3 (207/220 .578 .588 118.5 ICL) and Tsp stg 1 ls6 heads-do you guys think i'd benefit that much over my ported LS6 and Shaner TB? thanx in advance

At what point should you really consider getting a FAST over the LS6

In my research of this issue, I found that any car making at least 400 rwhp will make 20 more rwhp when switching to a FAST90. There may be better things to spend you money on, but thats your call.

And for the record my LS6 CTSV made 372rwhp/363rwtq. With just a FAST 90 (unported), electric water pump, stock air box w/ K&N filter and Magnaflow catback.
